In her petition filed on Monday, she has also asked for the probe to be monitored by the High Court to ensure impartiality.

Thakur has submitted before the Court that an enquiry report dated 12 January 2012 conducted by the Disabled Welfare department has already proved malpractices by the Trust controlled by Louise Khurshid. Even the CAG in its audit report related to the ministry of Social Justice has found irregularities in utilization of Rs 71 lakh funds by the Zakir Hussain Memorial Trust, she said.

The then CDO, Mainpuri J B Singh who is currently the Registrar, Lucknow University has also categorically denied having signed the alleged affidavit in favour of the Trust, stated Dr Thakur.

Therefore she has pleaded before the court that in view of such developments the only appropriate action is to file an FIR in the case and investigate the matter.

She has pleaded the court to direct the Home department to file an FIR in the case and asked that the High Court monitor the investigations as the accused are highly influential people. She said that any probe into the issue would only be partial if the court monitors it as the highly influential people involved in the case may manipulate investigative agencies.

The petition will come for hearing before the court on October 17. Dr Thakur has made the state government, Dr Zakir Hussain Memorial Trust and and news channel Aaj Tak which conducted a sting operation on the Trust as respondents in the case.
